"Mina before we go pick up Rini, I have to go to the store and stop at home"

"Sure thing, what are you getting?"

".A pregnancy test"

"Serena.why didn't you tell me"

All of a sudden everything halted. Everything was frozen. It was as if time stopped. Then the surroundings changed. Serena was in her princess garb, on the moon. Then her mother appeared.

"Mother."

"Serenity. You have no idea how wonderful it is seeing your face."

"It's good to see you too."

The two embraced with tears in their eyes. Mother and daughter happy to see each other, being it was only the third time in millennia.

"Serenity now is the time to confide in Mina about Sailor Sun and Tuxedo Mars. Also I have something for you. You already have access to the royal fortune, and I want you to use it wisely. Who knows who's watching."

The Queen handed Serenity 3 watches, very much like Jadeite's, except each had a different stone, emerald, topaz, and sapphire.

" It is time for the generals to regain their memories of the past and take their place as your guardians. Give these to them and they will come back and so will their rightful places. It is also time for Princess Venus. Give her this, so her memories and powers may be remembered."

She handed Serenity a gold chain with two orange interlaced hearts.

"This is her new transformation necklace. When she regains her memories she will know what to do. Also I give you two these rings."

One ring was a gold band with an exact replica of Serenity's transformation necklace's charm only smaller. The other ring was also gold only with Venus's small transformation replica.

"These watches are the generals communicators. Give them these ATM cards also so they may have access to the royal funds when needed."

The cards were each generals respective planet colors as well as Venus's, with the planet symbol on them. Serena had received hers already. It was silver with the moon and sun symbol (basically a picture of the eclipse in silver and black).

"Serenity I know about your current ah. dilemma. Not very princess like behavior but you must deal with it. I trust your judgment. Just try to control the lunarian sex drive. I know you are supposed to be mating, married, and producing children, but you must control the lunarian sex drive. It could endanger the balance of your human life.

Also Serenity I love you no matter what you do. Serenity I.I need to tell you. stay safe."

"I love you too mother and I will."

Serenity could tell her mother was holding back on something. But didn't question her. They hugged each other tightly as Serena returned to Earth with a Mina waiting to be answered.

"Mina take these they'll explain a few things." Serena replied handing her the ring and necklace.

"I don't see how but..." Mina stopped sort as soon as she touched them.

She then fell into a trance.

"Wow"

"That was kind of my reaction too.

They then hugged tightly ignoring the strange looks they received on the street.

"Cousins in this life and the next that is so cool!"

"Isn't it?"

"Funny how people have yet to figure it."

"It is isn't it?"

"Shut up Seren"

Serena then picked up her silver cell and dialed a familiar number.

"Hello?" a deep voice asked.

"Hey Mal, I'll pick up Rini in about thirty minutes if it's alright. I have a few things I have to do."

"Sure but hurry up this demon is driving us crazy. I never realized how much like you she is."

"Well I never! Humph. Just for that no more of my mother's cooking is coming to your house when you're sick."

"Serena you would never do that to your favorite man, would you?"

"Yes!"

"Then please forgive me oh wonderful Seren!"

"Forgiven. Oh and don't let Darien near her. He knows where she is," she sighed

"No problem. I will gladly beat up Darien for you and the pink demon"

"Thank you, and be my guest!"

"Oh I will. Goodbye Seren"

"Peace Mally."

The phone conversation then ended before "Mally" could rebuke at being call the forbidden name. Serena and Mina the walked to the store. Serena chose three pregnancy tests that seemed accurate and bought them. Then they headed home. Serena took the test and they waited nervously for the results.

"Ten minutes is up. Time for you to go look"

"Will look with me Mina?"

"Sure come on!"

The walked slowly to the bathroom and looked at the counter. The first one was blue, the second pink, the third a negative. They looked at each other and blinked. Then the hugged tightly Serena with a hard look on her face.

"Thank Selene"

"Yes thank her indeed. Now do you have any idea what you put me through Serenity? No! Do you care no! Well I'm still happy you're not pregnant"

"Now the only thing left is to tell Jadeite."

They left the house both with somber looks on their face. They reached Mal's house in a minute and knocked on the door. They heard a bang then a crash, a scream, a giggle, and some grunts.

"COMING!"

The door opened the reveal Zoisite with his hair unusually messy.

"Finally you're here to save us from the demon you condemned us to!" Zoisite yelled, pure joy on his face, pulling them both into a hug.

"Yes we're here your saviors!" Mina said sarcastically.

They stepped into the house to find a complete mess and a pink flurry run by, followed by three disgruntled men. Mina stepped into the pink flurry's path quickly being tackled to the ground. She then quickly grabbed it, and side stepped the men as they fell to the ground. Serena began to laugh, falling to the floor with tears in her eyes.

There were three men lying on the floor tangled up. Each of their hair was a mess with different objects in it, their clothes covered in unknown objects. As the females studied Zoisite closer she noticed the same things about him, only he was standing. Mina and the pink flurry AKA Rini were also laughing.

The men untangled themselves and stood up. Walking into the living room along with Zoisite. Jadeite moved over to Serena gave her a kiss on the cheek, and wrapped his arm around her. Then they all went to sit on the couch.

"I have something to give you all. But first, Malachite, Zoisite, and Nephrite will you all please kneel. No questions yet, just please do it," Serena said seeing the strange looks on their faces.

They did as they as they were asked. She turned into her Princess Serenity form and then walked to them one at a time saying their proper names and giving them their watches, watching their memories return. The general's eyes filled with tears while Rini lay asleep on the couch.

"Princess Serenity, we promise we will serve and protect you to the best of our ability," Malachite said for all of them as they bowed their heads.

"Please rise. There is no need for bowing we are all friends here. Besides, there are more important matters to discuss right. Let me just Rini in your room first, Malachite," she announced.

Serena went to put Rini upstairs while all the generals, except Jadeite, wondered what could be more important then them pledging their loyalty and the reunion. She came back down the stairs with a solemn look on her face.

"Generals and Venus, we have a situation on our hands. 1,000 years ago we died fighting Beryl to the best of our ability, in one way or another. To save our souls my mother, Queen Serenity, sent us to the future to be reborn, and live a peaceful life. Unfortunately Beryl has come back and we have to fight her with everything we have, and this time SHE WILL NOT succeed! I will not tolerate it. Not as Princess Serenity, Sailor Sun, or Serena! Neither will you as generals or sailor scout."

"However this isn't the only problem on our hands, but the next problem is the general's. You unfortunately have to choose a side, but before I go on I ask that you keep my identity as Princess Serenity and Sailor Scout a secret, from the public eye, and Prince Endymion and the Sailor Scouts," she said with a certain regal air.

Malachite looked from general to general and they all nodded and bowed, their right hands over each of their respective chests.

"Princess Serenity the generals and I will all serve you to the best of our ability seeing as how our Prince has clouded judgment. We shall protect him, but you are first in our priorities and in our hearts. We will protect you with our lives, and be your friends until the end. We have decided to be your guards and protect, your mind, body. and heart."

Serena looked at all of them with tears in her eyes, touched by Malachite's words. She walked over and hugged all of them planting a big kiss on their cheeks, well except for in Jadeite's case. With him the kiss was planted on the lips. Of course.

"As princess I pledge to do the same for you. Now can we get something to eat, your treat of course because as usual I'm hungry!"

They all laughed, while Serena pouted. After Rini woke up and they discussed all scout business they went to eat.

*~*Meanwhile*~*

Darien paced the temple, contemplating everything that had just happened. He had lost the woman he thought he loved, turned on her, been attacked by the negaverse, a stronger and more powerful force than before, became scout leader, and had a new scout and some wannabe him sidekick to deal with. Not only that but no more Sailor Moon. Oh yeah and they lost an advisor, Artemis, and Mina was on Serena's side, so minus another scout possibly. Things were not looking good, and his mood showed it.

"Darien." Rei said.

"What is it Rei?"

"Um. what are you doing tomorrow night?"

"Not no. Nothing I'm not doing anything, would you like to come to my apartment and, hang out? As a matter a fact how about now instead of tomorrow"

"Whatever you want Darien

I need some sort of distraction.

"Darien snap of it, we have scout business," Rei said irritably.

"Sorry."

Damn without Serena around I'm getting hornier by the second. I need some woman and I need her now.

"What information do you have on Sailor Sun and Tuxedo Mars, Amy?"

"Well Darien nothing except their names and the few attacks they used. Oh yeah, and by the looks of it she also has the power to destroy monsters like Sailor Moon did," Amy commented.

Sailor Sun..

"Well since that's all we have to go on let's dismiss this meaning and if anyone sees Rini, you know what we have to do."

"Oh yeah and let's not forget our number one mission looking for the princess," Lita reminded them.

"Yes, please don't," Luna said warily.

The meeting was dismissed.

~*~Crown Parlor~*~

Everyone looked at Serena in disbelief. I mean she could eat, but she never ate that much. As for Rini well her appetite was the same. Looking at them made you wonder how can those bodies store so much food.

"Serena. maybe you should slow down," Malachi said with concern.

"I'm fine. just. really. hun.gry. I di.dn't e.at t.hat. *gulp* much today."

"Looks like neither of you ate a day of your life," Nephrite said.

"Nephrite keep your comments to yourself!" Yelled Serena and Rini in unison.

Then Serena turned to Jadeite and Zoisite with big puppy eyes.

"You guys, could I have some money for the games?"

They both looked at that face and then the identical little face and tried to resist. Then they took it a step further. Rini sat on Zoisite's lap and said please with the puppy dog eyes and Serena almost doing 'the same thing' to Jadeite only a little more heated.

"Alright, alright you can stop now, please!" Jadeite pleaded.

The Zoisite and he forked over the money. Then they went to go play some games.

"Hey I want some money too!" said Mina looking at Malachite.

He gave Mina some money and she ran off happily also.

"Looks like I'm the only one who's not going broke today!" Nephrite said with a sly grin.

The rest off the generals laughed and got up leaving him with the bill.

"Why did I open my big mouth? Let me see, the bill can't be too bad can it?"

He pulled the bill closer and looked at it horrified.

"$100!?!?! What the."

Just when he was about to finish his ranting, he saw Lita coming into the arcade.

"Uh oh this is not good. Time for a little evasive maneuver."

Nephrite quickly paid the bill and 'accidentally' ran into Lita, managing to stop her from seeing Serena.

"LITA, how good to see you! Sorry I bumped into you. How are you?" he said loudly while activating his communicator.

Serena after hearing this through the communicator grabbed Rini and fled out the back door with Mina and Jadeite at her tail. Leaving Nephrite, Malachite, and Zoisite to deal with Lita.

"Oh really? It's very good to see you too, Nephrite! How funny seeing you here. Have you seen Serena? I've been looking for her, I have to ask her some girl stuff you know?" Lita said.

Nephrite eyes turned cold and he looked out the window.

"I thought you and Serena weren't on speaking terms right now, for some reason?" he questioned.

"Oh we weren't, but we made up. It was just some dumb fight over a boy," she said her eyes downcast.

"I see, well I haven't seen her but I will tell her you looking for her," he said looking back at her.

Then Nephrite smiled at her, waved, and walked away.
